Without testing, I think you're right here, the MSG_DONTROUTE isn't set
here anymore.

I have a git feeling that I've found the problem. Can you revert
e940e0895a82 ("can: skb: can_skb_set_owner(): fix ref counting if socket
was closed before setting skb ownership") and check if that fixes your
problem? This might trigger the problem described in the patch:

Can you give me feedback if
1. the revert "fixes" your problem
2. the revert triggers the above backtrace

regards,
Marc
